"W32.Beagle.A@mm" was found as an attachment.

A few things amuse me about this...

1) Coadweaves makes a great product, I just hope that
this wan't sent from a Linux box running crossover.

2) I think we all run linux here. We can pretty much
say that this particular distrobution spoke is pretty
much dead...

3) If Microsoft just removed the ability to run
executables from Outlook, and made it so the user
would have to "activate" it via a executable
permission (Chmod 755 wsmktvxhew.exe) 99% of these
things won't even propgate.

Well, wouldn't that be an ultimate compatibility test :-). Just test 
whether all the virusses like wine/crossover as much as a nomal app will 
mean that even the security holes were implemented correctly :D.

No; John Sheets hasn't worked with us for a few years,
his email has clearly been harvested from someone elses
address book (one that had both he and wine-devel in
it :-( ).  Of course, doesn't mean that person wasn't
bitten by Wine...

CrossOver Office has a hack^H^H^H^Hproprietary
technology that prevents CreateProcess from opening
.exe, .bat, and a few others if the calling
process is 'outlook.exe'.  *This* is why Wine is so
cool - because we can choose to do the things that
Microsoft is resistant too.

Cheers,

Jeremy

I don't really believe that, to be honest. People choose to run these
things, if they have to go through some meaningless mechanical ritual in
order to run it they will anyway. I mean, it's not like their finger slips
and they say "oops looks like I clicked the virus, ah well".

Hmmm, you shouldn't be subscribed to the list anymore. Consider yourself
unsubscribed.

I'll find this and remove it from the archive as well...
